Local Notes for Makaha
Most dryer calls in Makaha come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.
Hawaii has no appliance repair license classification; the Contractors License Board's specialty classifications cover related trades such as plumbing (including fuel gas piping), refrigeration, and ventilating and air conditioning, and a contractor license applies to jobs that need a building, electrical or plumbing permit.

Installing and repairing fuel gas piping systems and their venting falls under the C-37 plumbing contractor classification, and plumbing contractors must use licensed plumbers for that work. Source: Description of Contractor License Classifications (Hawaii DCCA Contractors License Board)
Questions to Ask a Makaha Technician
